You're implying some pretty serious things here, and entirely it's entirely unwarranted. This kind of armchair analysis is really disturbing to read, it's the same with anything legal, when all it becomes amateur hour at the law. Getting sc

You're neglecting the wife in this armchair psychology. There's a much mor complex power dynamic going on entirely.

It's totally about pre-paying for a product or service. To think anything else is very naive. You really think all those people were just wanted to believe in something awesome - no they wanted that Pebble watch or that Dresden Dolls album.

How is it annoying "managing" tabs? They really aren't that difficult. If you open the link in a new tab, then when you're done you close the tab, it will go back to the previous domain (because they undo in the order they were created) - i

I think you're exaggerating somewhat disingenuously. I commute over the bay bridge and it generally flows well, "stuck for hours" just isn't realistic. It's already $5-$7 which seems quite enough given that I already pay local taxes which a

But it's different for maps, it's not the programming that was at fault, it's the cartographic data. And to continue the parallel, it would have probably been better for apple and everyone else if apple had just used the gecko engine for th

I don't agree that email is heavy at all. I see nothing here that couldn't be accomplished with email and/or a wiki. Sharing links over irc makes little sense, links belong on a wiki so they can be searched for and edited etc etc.

It's much easier to make it look "gorgeous" when the timeline is full of gorgeous people, beautifully photographed.

The phone looks like Win8 Metro, and the presenter is trying to be Steve Jobs. With the cpu's in phones already being phenomenally fast I see little to no value in removing the java layer. Currently this is vaporware, but should it appear o

I don'r profess to performing a litany of self help routines. If you take the time to read a stupid blog post about the usual pathways to happiness, then take the time to comment on hn, even if you are copy/pasting from some reservoir you k

It's exhausting just reading this. Obviously since you're here wasting time typing out long comments you don't take your own advice.

It's hard to get be too sympathetic to this list of gripes? - you have to put gas in a car. That's hardly much of an inconvenience. - they are dirty? Its a sharing system, what do you expect? People are slobs mostly, and when there's no inc

You seem to forget that cellphones are actually phenomenally complicated pieces of RF engineering. It wasn't Apple pioneering how to make that all work. People seem to forget now that Phones aren't just computers. That miniaturization was r

Art photography, if she's any good, is much more likely to make her money. However, it takes a while to build her name in the art photography world. It's also very difficult because those days everyone's a photographer, and anyone who uses

I don't get it? "I thought up an app that would make it extremely easy to send many pictures to a group of friends in one go." Isn't that email?

That's very negative, despite the disclaimer. And from what I've seen of the above, people aren't writing ten crappy side projects, many of them are excellent. Staying focused on one thing is fine too, but for many of us, we like to dabble

How can you build what is essentially a subset of tumblr and then say you have little experience with tumblr? This would strike me as not being very serious about your show hn. At least look at the competition thoroughly so you can find an

I don't understand how that can take more than two hours of someone who's a college senior (presuming you're a CS student). This is just a handful of lines of very simple python using one of the most documented and oldest web protocols. Th
